What are the most interesting Castles to visit in Switzerland?

Question

I would like to visit castles in Switzerland and would like to get advise on where to good ones are to be found? Thanks.

Answer 1

The general concensus is that Chateau Chillon on Lake Geneva near Montreux is THE castle to see. But Castle Kyburg in northern Zurich canton is very cool as well, and so are the castles in Burgdorf (canton Berne I think), Lenzburg (Aargau) and Rapperswil (St. Gallen canton, but on the Zurich lake).

OK basically I like castles and haven't been disappointed yet. If you have the Swiss Pass for the trains you can get into most or all of them free. (As well as other museums.)

Enjoy!
